B&B Italia

On 1 March 2011, the Busnelli family regained majority ownership of the company and subsequently acquired all remaining shares.

The United States subsidiary, B&B Italia USA Inc., is based in Manhattan, New York City, in the Architects and Designers Building, which also houses the company's American flagship store.

B&B Italia has won four Compasso d'Oro awards: first in 1979 for Le Bambole by Mario Bellini, then in 1984 for Sisamo by Studio Kairos, and again in 1987 for Sity by Antonio Citterio. In 1989, B&B Italia became the first company to receive a Compasso d'Oro awarded directly to a design manufacturing entity. Since 1966, B&B Italia has produced more than 1,000 designs, including prototypes.

Designers who have worked with the B&B Italia design department include Antonio Citterio, Patricia Urquiola, Gaetano Pesce, Naoto Fukasawa, Zaha Hadid, Marcel Wanders, Richard Sapper, Afra and Tobia Scarpa, Jean-Marie Massaud, Jeffrey Bernett, Mario Bellini, Studio Kairos, Paolo Piva, Richard Schultz, Atelier Oï, David Chipperfield, C. Gerhards and A. Glücker, Chris Howker, Ettore Sottsass, Gabriele and Oscar Buratti, Jakob Wagner, Monica Armani, Nicole Aebischer, Roberto Barbieri, Uwe Fischer, Jasper Morrison, Marc Newson, and Vincent Van Duysen.

More than 3% of B&B Italia's annual sales are reinvested in research and development. In 2010, a foaming department for upholstery was established through an investment of €4 million.

With the entry of The Carlyle Group into Investindustrial's design plan, Design Holding was established in September 2018 with the aim of creating an Italian hub of high-end interior design. Later, it expanded internationally. The brands already controlled by Investindustrial became part of the new company, led by Gabriele Del Torchio: Flos, B&B Italia, and the Danish company Louis Poulsen.

The B&B Italia Group owns the brands B&B Italia, Maxalto, Azucena, and Arclinea. In 2019, it reported revenues of €201.4 million, with exports accounting for over 80% of total sales. Its products are sold in 80 countries through a distribution network comprising 10 flagship stores, 70 single-brand stores, and approximately 1,000 resellers.

In January 2025, the group announced the appointment of Piero Gandini as executive chairman. Gandini, who previously served at Flos, took over from Daniel Lalonde. The company plans to expand its business internationally.
